The KUHN 5635 field cultivator, with its 5 rows of shanks, provides the residue flow necessary to work in today's high-yielding cash crop conditions, while shanks on true 15.2 cm spacing and split-the-middle shank pattern ensure that volunteer weeds are removed across the entire width of the machine. Features such as the exclusive floating hitch design and positive stop depth control ensure working depth remains consistent for even germination and uniform emergence.

Create the Ideal Seedbed

Mix
The 5635 field cultivator provides increased residue flow through the five rows of shanks in high residue conditions.
Cultivate
Uniform cultivation with the split-the-middle sweep pattern removes green growth leading to better seed-to-soil contact
Enhance Seedbed Condition
The 24/7 leveling systems create a smooth, level seedbed surface for reduced planter row unit bounce, providing consistent seed spacing and planting depth.

Split-the-Middle Design

The first three ranks of shanks till the full sweep width, while the fourth and fifth ranks till the middles creating a split-the-middle sweep pattern
Six-inch shank spacing provides maximum tillage action and uniform soil, residue and herbicide mixing
Front-to-rear frame clearance of 53.1 cm allows the 5635 field cultivator to handle high volumes of residue.

Floating Hitch

The exclusive KUHN floating hitch system precisely gauges tillage depth for rolling terrain resulting in fast, even emergence. Uniform tillage depth creates consistent soil moisture in the seed zone allowing seeds to draw moisture from the surrounding soil at the same rate. This enhances even seedling emergence, which is critical for maximizing yield potential. Conventional hitch designs do not contour to rolling terrain, gouging deeper on hilltops and running too shallow in valleys. This can cause uneven emergence and immediately affects final yield potential.

Floating Hitch Advantages

The KUHN floating hitch features up to 57% fewer wear points than conventional designs. Fewer moving parts mean less chance for a breakdown during the critical seedbed preparation season. In field position, the 5635 contours over rolling ground conditions, then transforms to a rigid, self-leveling style when raised to transport position. The floating hitch system raises the gauge wheels off the ground during transport. This provides greater machine stability and control as compared to conventional floating hitch designs. Conventional designs generally produce “caster wobble” and may become unstable during transport, especially at high speeds.

Shank and Leveling Choices

Shank Mount and Shank Options

With a variety of shank and mount options, KUHN 5635 field cultivators can be configured to meet your agronomic needs.

24/7 Leveling Systems

KUHN offers a variety of harrows to meet your specific soil and residue requirements. These harrows are available for all sizes and provide time saving features to increase overall productivity.

Equipment

Guardian Hitch™

This exclusive option guards against stress on the tractor drawbar and implement frame. Lateral drawbar forces are transferred through the hitch pivot where shock load from steering input is dampened by urethane blocks. Choose from the articulating ball Cat III, IV or V double-bolt, cast hitch, depending on model.

Hydraulic Depth Control

New hydraulic positive stop depth control provides easy adjustment while maintaining consistent working depth at each frame section across the width of the machine.

Tractor Interface Center

The tractor interface center prevents hydraulic hoses from binding in turns and adds operator convenience. Includes hose routing chart, color coded hose grips, storage for light hookup and owner’s manual.

Walking Beams

Walking beams allow for consistent working depth on rough ground and more stable road transport.

Two Reel Options Available

Choose from two agronomic conditioner designs. The heavy-duty round spiral reel provides clod sizing and firming in mellow, loam-type soils, and offers better performance in wet conditions. The heavy-duty flat spiral reel provides aggressive clod sizing in hard or high-clay content soils.

Rear Hitch

The optional rear hitch features an extendable tongue that allows one person to connect the 5635 to towed implements. An optional weight transfer system is recommended when towing an implement behind the 5635 equipped with a floating hitch.
